[ml1201]

A young girl using an old tattered blanket as a cloak hides in the shadows of the building across from the rundown super market across the paved road, or at least that's what the building claims to be with the letters on it's front. Tabitha, a teenage girl, quickly scans her surroundings before making a run across the road. The food there from when the building wasn't in ruins was no longer edible, but that's not the reason why she was there. She had been lucky that someone transporting food supplies didn't notice some of the fruit fall out of their basket while traveling into the region where some people not infected by the viruses live. She only went to that place when she couldn't find food, which in a ruined city like this was pretty hard at times.

Taking refuge inside Tabitha carefully scans her surroundings, hoping no wild animals where here that could attack her. Near the back she finds a door partially off it's hinges, pushing past to a room filled with decayed clothing, but notices some clothes of some kind that haven't deteriorated as much yet. Hurrying over to it she turns it into her bed, ignoring the smell as best she could. A lot of cities from hundreds of years ago were like this now, though some are in the process of being rebuilt, just not this one quite yet. Thus making it a good place to hide from people.

She didn't hate people, but after being betrayed by her family like she was she was scared to go near people again. The fear of hunters chasing her down and trying to kill her terrified her to no end. And when she was terrified...she didn't even want to think about it since she doesn't like to hurt people. Curling up in her blanket she wore over her clothing, she settles down to sleep. Crying to herself because her heart aches with betrayal and loneliness.
